2 : A Conceptual Overview and Review of Vendors Jeffrey W. Merhout Miami University jmerhout@miamioh.edu Shu Schiller Wright State University shu.schiller@wright.edu Mary M. Callison Wright State University mary.callison@wright.edu ABSTRACT Organizations need relevant and specific information systems to operate their carbon emissions, energy use, and other green activities to support its management of sustainability initiatives and related accounting and other reporting requirements. Green information systems (IS) and environmental management information systems (EMIS) thus become necessary for monitoring and controlling activities and procedures regarding environmental concerns. In the IS scholarly community, we have not yet given full attention to carbon management and environmental management IS, despite our increasing efforts in research around green information systems. In this paper, we aim to introduce the concepts of environmental management information systems by discussing some of their common software characteristics, such as whether support for ISO is provided. We provide an overview of a collection of such green and sustainable information systems and will discuss thoughts on directions for conducting IS research on these topics at the conference. Keywords: Environmental management information systems, sustainability, green IS, carbon accounting and reporting INTRODUCTION As societies and organizations struggle to get a handle on environmental stewardship, the information systems (IS) research community has a golden opportunity to make difference. This is exactly the reason that the AIS Special Interest Group on Sustainability (SIGGreen) was established information is a significant resource for entities to use to manage sustainable development activities. Indeed as key resources (e.g., energy, land, water) have become increasingly limited over the last several decades, data and information about these resources has become more available (Baya and Gruman, 2011) and rather inexpensive too. Thus our research community is in a position to help guide sustainability efforts. The purpose of this workin-progress paper is to introduce green information systems and environmental management IS (EMIS) that are already available (and rapidly continuing to develop) to support these important organizational initiatives. One motivation for our research is to understand the nature and characteristics of the emerging environmental management information systems. These EMIS are in the nascent stages of development and are comparable to enterprise systems in the mid-to-late 1990s. At that time, we knew those enterprise systems were developing quickly and would have a big impact in IT strategy and on organizational processes, but we did not know much about them and were unaware of the key research issues. Slowly over time, the literature developed and enterprise systems research has led to a substantive understanding by the academic community, and now all IS core class textbooks include a significant discussion of these systems. Accordingly, in attempt to gain a working understanding of EMIS, we collected a list of green and sustainable information systems and provide an overview on their features, characteristics, strengths and weaknesses. This portion of our research is in its beginning stages and will be more thoroughly developed for discussion at the conference in May. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS In order for any organization to successfully manage their carbon footprint and the complexity of carbon accounting and reporting, some sort of formal structure will be needed. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has created a framework for organizational environmental management systems (EMS) called the ISO series which addresses requirements for quality organizational environmental management and its associated management framework and provides Proceedings of the Eleventh Midwest Association for Information Systems Conference, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, May 19-20,
3 general guidelines for EMS ( Speshock (2010, p. 103) describes EMS as a set of management tools and principles designed to create administrative procedures that a company needs to integrate environmental concerns into its daily business practices. Cummings (2009, p. 229) adds that in order for sustainability accounting/reporting to be effective, it must be supported by an EMS. Hence it seems logical that one of the tools necessary for carbon accounting (and other environmental management practices) is a quality information system, with quality being characterized by features available that support the ISO series. For the purposes of this paper we plan to analyze various EMIS to see if the ISO guidelines are addressed. Moreover, we note that carbon management, accounting, and reporting systems (which appear to be a precursor to many current EMIS) are a logical subset of EMS and contend that these systems can also be classified as green information systems. GREEN/SUSTAINABLE INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND EMIS Green information systems are defined by Watson, Boudreau, Chen, and Huber (2009, p. 2) as the design and implementation of information systems that contribute to sustainable business processes. Based on this classic, broad description, we conceptualize EMIS (the term we choose to refer to at this stage of our research) to be a subset of green IS. El-Gayer and Fritz (2006, p. 756) provide an insightful and thought-provoking overview of EMS and define EMIS as organizational-technical systems for systematically obtaining, processing, and making available relevant environmental information available in companies. Specifically these systems attempt to automate environmental management activities, incorporate lifecycle assessments and environmental cost accounting, and meet compliance reporting requirements. In our research, we identified several types (and names, some of which overlap) of information systems that generally fit El-Gayer and Fritz s description of EMIS, including: environmental, social, and economic life-cycle modeling software, such as the WorleyParsons EcoNomics DELTA tool set (Hardisty, 2010); carbon emissions management software (Philipson, Foster and Brand, 2009; Unhelkar, 2011); carbon management systems (Corbett, 2013); enterprise sustainability planning (ESP) systems (Kelly, Ashton and Baya, 2011); enterprise carbon accounting (ECA) software (Groom, 2010); and emissions tracking and energy management software (Deloitte, 2007). For purpose of this paper, we only discuss systems that appear to be comprehensive enough to support sustainability initiatives and reporting requirements. Indeed, we identified the commonly used EMIS we cover in Table 1 in the Appendix from a review of Fortune 50 company sustainability reports. In our continuing research, we plan to investigate these EMIS to identify consistent features included in the systems in addition to analyzing how these EMIS compare to general benchmark features of quality software (per ISO 25010:2011), such as reliability, usability and efficiency. In addition, we hope to be able to visit an organization using one of these commonly used EMIS to obtain more information about the features that the organization does indeed use and analyze what might make such software even more useful. We may also be able to determine some of the challenges faced and lessons learned as the organization adopted the system. CONCLUSION Quality organizational environmental management requires appropriate tools, such as information systems designed to support operational and reporting requirements. Our research-in-progress explores environmental management information systems and some of the common, important features such IS can provide. We look forward to presenting the results of our review of selected systems at the conference. REFERENCES Baya, V., and Gruman, G.
